Top Hotels Near Ocean Beach Farmers Market in San Diego from NZ$113

"We used to come here for many years with our kids in the early 2000's. Back then the resort was in great condition. The street pavement was smooth, for kids to ride scooters and skateboards. All the landscape lighting worked. All the paint was good, etc. They also had a guard gate which limited access to guests only so there was very little traffic. Now it is looking much older, the pavement needs a resurfacing, finish carpentry needs to be redone, etc. It was not badly run down, just not up to the price. They charge $45 a night to park by your room now. That used to be free. There is a big public parking lot, but depending on where your room is, it could be 500 yards away. That may not be a problem for some, and it may be a problem for others. The California Coastal commission probably forced them to open the property to the public for beach access, and they put up big ugly signs everywhere...now you get people wandering through the place. It just doesn't feel as safe and secure as it used to. The location is great. It can not be beat. We just went to the Barefoot Grill for lunch and dinner, and the food was excellent. The views are wonderful. But it does feel like time is taking its toll on the place a bit."

"Ocean Beach Hotel was a mixture of experiences. I traveled here with my wife and 15yr old daughter. Upon arrival, we found the hotel and location as the perfect setting for a couple of days of relaxation. The room was clean and beds were comfortable. I had no issues with the hotel itself and would highly recommend, just depending on what sort of experience you're looking for. The area around the hotel was a different story. Ocean Beach is a mix of bars, surfers, and homeless. I didn't feel in danger, but also not the best scene for a family, especially with young children. We arrived on Wednesday night, which is the "farmers market" night. This was cool at first as there was a lot of street vendors with food/goods. But by around 9pm we knew we were in for a long night. There is a drum circle every Wednesday directly across the street, the sound of heavy drums played non-stop until ~12:00pm. This along with the pop-up rave that also played until ~11:30pm, which stopped when the cops arrived to break up a fight. Made for a very loud night, and impossible to get any sleep until they shut down. Thursday night was a completely different story, The streets were quiet, scenery was beautiful. So, if you're coming for a party, then this location is perfect. If you're coming with your family or for relaxation I would avoid Wednesday nights."

"Super convenient location easy walk to lovely Beaches. Shopping, dining and entertainment right on the same block. Easy access to public transportation to get anywhere in the city. Staff is awesome and accommodating and friendly. Lots of fun hanging out in common areas with other guests."

"The room was very quiet and comfortable. The staff was excellent and friendly. We didn't use the pool, because it was cold. The breakfasts were very good, although they seemed expensive compared of going off site."

"House near the beach and close to many touristics spots, but you need a car"

"The room was clean but the lock on the sliding patio door did not work. I called the front desk and they had maintenance come and fix it immediately. The pool was great! The only thing I recommend is that they work on their parking situation. There's only one way in and out. Hotel is close to the ocean."

"Great place to stay. Close proximity to shops & the beach. Owners are very friendly, accommodating & helpful! I would suggest this place to anyone"

"The place has a beautiful big deck right on the cliff overlooking the ocean. Everything was clean and they include so many details that make the place cozy and convenient."

"Restaurants aren’t that great"
